Pornophonique is a german music band. Their latest release, 8-Bit Lagerfeuer, is... well, simply awesome! :)

Knoc! Knoc! Who's there?
posted by Grim on 20/07/2008 at 15:06

Guess who's back with a new demo?

PHAT is a demo for Amstrad Plus (128kb RAM required), it's coming from overseas and will show you some nice effects but also that demo can be done using C language (with Z88dk in this case).
If you want to know more about how to use C on CPC/Plus, you can go there to get started.

Supersly just published 4 news articles about CPC graphics made in the CPC demoscene. Quite interresting to read, but it's all written in french (it should be ok with a good online translator).

Shinra released two 256bytes intro lately, both written in BASIC.

Twister contest
posted by Grim on 22/01/2008 at 3:38

To all those living in their own world and are not following what's going on in the demoscene, a funny twister contest appeared in the C64 scene and is spreading to others platforms.
The rules? Just do a twister (or rubber bar, as you wish) in 256bytes.
The price? As usual: pride, glory and a free beer at the next party! :)

This is a screenshot of some of these twisters :
Twisting Sister (C64)
Twisting Twistor Is Twisting 3 by Camelot (C64)
ZXwister by Ate Bit (ZX Spectrum) (I love this one! :)
Twistiminus by Arkos (CPC)
You will find more of them at Pouët.net.

CPC coders out there (hello Optimus ;), if you wanna code something but are too busy with work, wife, etc, just try to do a 256bytes demo while your coffee-break and join the twist!

 
[23:41]Françoise Sagan:La culture c'est comme la confiture .Ca s'étale, surtout quand on en a
[23:30]Optimus:Yes, demoscene is not just about the prizes or fame, but that is motivating too sometimes and I had some years to feel it I think..
[21:13]BDCIron:@power: pas moi trop loin ce coup ci et j'aime pas les villes...
[20:47]power:qui vient au Bee Meeting ?
[16:02]norecess:@optimus btw, I won prizes at demoparty and the only thing I got, was making troubles in the team (at the time, it was hard to split a Palm machine into 4 separate parts :)
[15:54]Lamer:yeah, demoscene is not at all about pride, fame and competition (hence ranking), sure. Only friendship matter, doing little bit'n'shit and kiss ass for fun sake :)
[14:23]norecess:@optimus damn, did I secretely write Orwee's 1984 ? :)
[14:22]norecess:@optimus you should not be part of the demoscene just to get recognized by others and in search of proudness or whatever
[14:21]norecess:@optimus you are part of the demoscene because it's a fun hobby for you
[14:21]norecess:@optimus you should not focus on "product ranking" while going to demoparties
[9:22]voxfreax:poios einai autos o jojo re?
[9:21]voxfreax:ante na doume.... Porwse me opti! :) PORWSE ME RE MOUTRO!!!!! :):)
[9:13]metal:mutant
[9:05]Optimus:Jojo: pare mas mia pipa
[9:05]Optimus:yep, after making a new demo for Euskal and getting at least the 3rd place I start liking the demoscene. Maybe it's time to say hallo to Rex and Voxfreax
[8:06]NickyOne:Optimus : start to kick your own ass ;)
[2:16]norecess:@optimus at least, you look motivated heheh
[0:17]Jojo:tha mas klaseis mia mantra arxidia
[0:16]Optimus:I am back on the CPC and ready to kick ASS!!!
[19:49]Rex:That's the spirit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyCMM6e1Lbo
[10:31]benjy:fallait faire secret story
[9:09]roudoudou:que de la gueule moi je dis
[23:03]EDF:Megachur: Amene des potes avec toi au CC5, comme ca j'vous ferai un tarif de groupe pour les tartes :)
[21:55]Megachur:Demande à EDF, il va encore augmenter ces tarifs -> on va même finir par lui coller une belle tarte sur la tronche pour le coup !!!
[21:03]norecess:je suis pret a envoyer des petites sucreries quebecoises aux genereux donateurs :)
[21:02]norecess:quelqu'un me paie le billet avion Montreal Toulouse pour la mi-aout ?
[18:40]Bernard Pivot:"Oxyde" avec un " y " svp :)
[18:31]Françoise Sagan:La culture c'est comme la confiture. Moins on en a et plus on l'étale...
[11:24]roudoudou:si ton connecteur en cuivre est protégé, il ne s'oxide pas :)
[8:55]metalo:cld : tout est dit je crois !
[2:08]norecess:telephone arabe : dites "au quebec c'est du 110v" a la fin on obtient "de l'or sur du cuivre" ! Dingue :))
[19:18]Dada:De l'or sur du cuivre !!! Cyanure powwwwaaaa !!!!!
[17:05]Cld:Et puis de toutre façon : CrocoChanel 5! Poilz!
[17:04]Cld:car l'oxyde de cuivre est tres mauvais conducteur... l'argent s'oxyde mais l'oxyde d'argent reste un tres bon conducteur (sauf sur les petites routes), et moin cher que l'or... parcontre c'est plus simple de mettre de l'or sur du cuivre que de l'argent...
[17:01]Cld:L'argent est un peu plus conducteur d'electricité que le cuivre... mais pas beaucoup par rapport a la diff de prix... l'or est moin bon conducteur que le cuivre mais ne s'oxyde pas, pour ça qu'il est utilisé pour les connecteurs
[17:00]Cld:Conductivité en Siemens par m d'un morceau de 1m² de section (la conductance en Siemens est l'inverse de la resistance en Ohms, plus c'est gros mieux ça passe :))
[16:58]Cld:Étain : 9,17×10^6 S/m, Alu : 37,7×10^6 S/m, Or: 45,2×10^6 S/m, Cuivre : 59,6×10^6 S/m, Argent : 63×10^6 S/m
[16:55]Cld:Non non l'argent est bien plus conducteur que l'alu et l'étain et plus que le cuivre
[10:35]antitec:I have already tried the I-buttons and they work perfectly!
[10:35]antitec:http://www.maxim-ic.com/products/1-wire/
[10:34]antitec:now you can connect devices that support 1wire on your CPC
[10:34]antitec:I have added the 1 wire protocol
[10:33]antitec:An update for the cpc booster+ is on the way
[9:39]metalo:tu te plantes cld ,l'argent c'est comme l'etain , c'est pas pour une histoire de conductivité , qu'il sont utilisés , c'est pour leur attout protecteur et resistant a rude epreuve
[11:41]EDF:@Megachur va lire tes liens Wikipedia et code nous de belles boules... :)
[8:41]Dadaï:@Snake : Jamais (avec moi en tout cas).
[2:51]Snake:@dadaïfan...: a quand la suite de radartator?
[23:47]Tronic:ampere iode de greve, c'est hot :)
[23:22]Cld:Et quel est l'intensité des secousse ? :)
[23:15]Tronic:@cloud : tu rates rien... car en même temps et à force ca fait grandement grimper la tension :)
